Description
Reference clock input. Normally supplied by a system clock source generator.
Phase detector input: The phase difference between this signal and SYNCLKN is
used to synchronize the Rambuschannel Clock with the system clock. Both the
PCLKM and SYNCLKN are provided by the memory controller. If the gear ratio is
not used, connect this pin to ground.

used, connect this pin to ground.
Clock Stop. When this input is driven to low state, the differential Rambus
channel clocks are disabled.
Power Down. When this input is driven to a logic low level, the differential

Direct Rambus III Clock Generator
System Clock Configuration
Figure 3 shows the clocking configuration for an example Direct Rambus subsystem. The configuration shows the
interconnection of the system clock source, the C9822, and the clock signals of a memory controller ASIC. The
ASIC contains the RAC, the Rambus Memory Controller protocol engine (RMC), and logic to support
synchronizing the Channel clock with the controller clock (This diagram represents the differential clocks as a
single Busclk wire).

This configuration achieves frequency-lock between the controller and Rambus Channel clocks (Pclk and Synclk).
these clock signals are matched and phase-aligned at the RMC/RAC boundary in order to allow data transfers to
occur across this boundary without additional latency.
The main clock source drives the system clock (Pclk) to the ASIC, and also drives the reference clock (Refclk) to
the C9822. Refclk is not the same frequency as Pclk. A PLL inside the C9822 multiplies Refclk to generate the
desired frequency for Busclk. Busclk is driven on the Rambus Channel through a terminated transmission line. At
the mid-point of the Channel, the RAC senses Busclk using its own DLL for clock alignment, followed by a fixed
divide-by-4 circuit that generates SynClk.
Pclk is the clock used in the Rambus memory controller (RMC) in the ASIC. SynClk is the clock used at the ASIC
interface of the RAC. the C9822 together with the Gear Ratio Logic enables the controller to exchange data
directly from the Pclk domain to the SynClk domain without incurring additional latency for synchronization. In
general, Pclk and SynClk can run at different frequencies, so the Gear Ratio Logic must select the appropriate M
and N dividers such that the frequencies of Pclk/M and SynClkN are equal. In one example, Pclk = 133 MHz and
SynClk = 100 MHz, and M = 4 while N = 3, giving Pclk/M = SynClk/N = 33 MHz.
The ASIC drives the output clocks, Pclk and SynClk/N from the Gear Ratio Logic to the C9822 Phase Detector
inputs. The routing of the Pclk/M and SynClk/N signal traces must be matched in impedance and propagation
delay on the ASIC as well as on the board. These signals are not part of the Rambus Channel and their routing
must be matched by board designers.

C9822
Direct Rambus III Clock Generator
System Clock Configuration (Cont.)
After comparing the phases of Pclk/M and SynClk/N, the C9822 Phase Detector drives a phase aligner that adjusts
the phase of the C9822 output clock, busclk. Since the other elements in the distributed loop have a fixed delay,
adjusting Busclk adjusts the phase of SynClk and thus the phase of SynClk/N.
In this manner, the distributed loop adjusts the phase of SynClk/N to match that of Pclk/M, eliminating the phase
error at the input of the C9822. When the clocks are aligned, data can be exchanged directly from the Pclk domain
to the SynClk domain.
The Gear Ratio Logic supports four clock ratios (1.0, 1.33, 1.5, 2.0), where the ratio is defined as the ratio of
Pclk/SynClk. Since Busclk - 4*synClk, this ratio also is equal to 4*Pclk/busclk.
In addition, the device is able to receive input signals that are generated from different voltage power supplies. The
controller output voltage supply is connected to the pin VDDIPD of the C9822, and is used as the reference for the
two-phase detector input signal, PclkM and SynClkN. The output voltage supply is also used as the reference for
the output enable/disable signal, StopB.
The reference clock comes from the main clock source chip. The main clock source output voltage supply is
connected to the pin VDDlR of C9822, and is used as the reference for the Refclk input signal.

Direct Rambus III Clock Generator
Power Management Functions (Cont.)
The device is able to turn off the Rambus Channel clock to minimize power for mobile and other power-sensitive
applications. In the “clock off” mode, the device remains on while the output is disabled, allowing fast transitions
between the clock-off and clock-on states. This mode could be used in conjunction with the Nap mode of the
RDRAMs and Rambus ASIC Cell (RAC). When output clocks are in a power down mode they are driven to and
held at a logic low level by the device.
In the “power down” mode, the device is completely powered down for minimum power dissipation. This mode is
used in conjunction with the power down modes of the RDRAMs and RAC.
The device has three operating states: Normal, Clock off and Powerdown. In normal mode, the clock source is on,
and the output is enabled. In Clock off mode, the clock source is on, but the output is disabled (StopB asserted). In
powerdown mode, the device is powered down with the control signal PwrDnB equal to 0. the control signals
Mult0, Mult1, S0, S1, and S2 must be stable before power is applied to the device, and can only be changed in
power-down mode (PwrDnB=0).

Figure 5: Clock Source State Diagram
Upon powering up the device, the device can enter any state, depending on the settings of the control signals
PwrDnB and StopB.
In Powerdown mode, the clock source is powered down with the control signal, PwrDnB, equal to 0. The control
signals S0, S1, and S2 must be stable before power is applied to the device, and can only be changed in
Powerdown mode (PwrDnB=0). The reference inputs, VddIR and VddIPd, may remain on or may be grounded
during the Powerdown mode.
The control signals Mult0, Mult1 can be used in two ways. If they are changed during Powerdown mode, then the
Powerdown transition timings determine the settling time of the DRCG. However, the Mult0 and Mult1 control
signals can also be changed during Normal mode. When the Mult control signals are “hot swapped” in this manner,
the Mult transition timings determine the settling time of the DRCG.
In Clk Stop mode, the clock source is on, but the output is disabled (StopB de-asserted). The VddIPD reference
input may remain on or may be grounded during the Clk Stop mode. The VddIR reference input must remain on
during the Clk Stop mode.

Figure 7 shows that the Clk Stop to Normal transition goes through three phases. During tCLKON, the clock output
is not specified and can have glitches. For tCLKON < t<tCLKSETL, the clock output is enabled and must be glitchfree. For t>tCLKSETL, the clock output phase must be settled to within 50 ps of the phase before the clock output
was disabled. At this time, the clock output must also meet the voltage and timing specifications in Table 11. The
outputs are in a high impedance state during the Clk Stop mode (see Table 7). The above specification apply when
the output has been held in the ClkStop state for less than tSTOP of Table 8.

After the DRCG PLL has settled, the distributed loop containing the phase aligner must also settle. This settling
time depends on components in the distributed loop which are outside of the clock source. Therefore, this settling
time is not a component specification.
The maximum lock time for the distributed loop is specified in Table 9 below. Note that the total time for the output
clock to settle from the Powerdown state to the Normal state is the sum of tPOWERUP plus tDISTLOCK. Similarly,
if the Mult0 and Mult1 control signals are changed during the Normal state, the total time for the output clock to resettle is the sum of tMULT plus tDISTLOCK.

This device contains circuitry to protect the inputs
against damage due to high static voltages or electric
field; however, precautions should be taken to avoid
application of any voltage higher than the maximum
rated voltages to this circuit. For proper operation,
Vin and Vout should be constrained to the range:
VSS<(Vin or Vout)<VDD
Unused inputs must always be tied to an appropriate
logic voltage level (either VSS or VDD).

b. Refclk jitter measured at VDDI,R(nom)/2
c. If input modulation is used; input modulation is allowed but not required.
d. The amount of allowed spreading for any non-triangular modulation is determined by the induced downstream
tracking skew, which cannot exceed the skew generated by the specified 0.6% triangular modulation. Typically, the
amount of allowed non-triangular modulation is about 0.5%.
e. Capacitance measured at Freq = 1 MHz, DC bias = 0.9V, and VAC<100mV
